TATTLETALE

I was playing with my older brother, Doug, when he hit me. I ran to Daddy, crying.

"Dougie slugged me!"

"Did you do that?" Dad stared at Doug.

"Yeah."

"You're in time out!" Dad pointed to Doug and then to the corner of the room.

"You get what you deserve," I sniffed.

I felt so much better... until I realized my play parner had just gotten locked up in the 'Richmond Jail.' I was bored. I crawled over to my brother.

"Do you like Daddy right now?"

"No!" Dougie huffed.

"Me neither," I sighed.

It was too late... being a tattletale got me in the end.

Kids are the same from generation to generation... even though the toys are ever evolving. Brothers and sisters hug one minute and then slug it out the next. It's timeless... and hysterical! I love watching...
